III.BACKGROUND AND IMPLICATIONS OF ACTION
 A)Board Action and Other History
  In March 2023, this Board approved a memorandum of understanding regarding a joint regional Next Generation 911 routing project between the Counties with Region 6. On June 20, 2023, the Board also accepted a 911 State Grant from the Florida Department of Management Services for the funding of the NG911 GIS Repository solution for all Region 6 E911 systems.

This item approves the piggyback purchase of this repository. The solution was required to be purchased through this vendor under the GSA contract under the terms and conditions of the grant from the Florida Department of Management Services. The purchase under this contract constitutes a savings of $34,869.38 over the five-year term. The grant fully funds the purchase.

The repository will take GIS maps from each county 911 system and store them in a central location for regional call routing in Next Generation 911 systems. The services also include the work necessary to connect the individual county maps to create a regional map for this purpose.
